This week we explored different types of clay; red, light gray and dark gray. Children began by touching, pulling and stomping on the clay with their bare feet. They talked about how the clay felt and compared the clay with the other each day. After having the full sensory experience, they began to make things from it.
Olivia adds little pieces to the top of her clay face. “I made a memory.”
Olivia: “It’s a taco”
Darcy: “I’m making the sea. I’m putting music in the sea.”
Children began making faces out of clay.
Making a fairy house together. Macey: “I’ll make the walls.” Olivia: “It looks like chocolate.”

Jacob: “It’s a banana”
Emyrsen’s face
Jerimiah: “It’s gooey.”
